“Marchita,” a free version by Erom Jimmy Cuesta, inspired by “Yerma,” the immortal rural tragedy by Federico García Lorca. This reinterpretation revives the story of a woman who walks between the invisible threads of desire and the chains of a society that doesn’t allow her to flourish.
Yerma, young and trapped in a sterile marriage with Juan, yearns with all her soul for the arrival of a child who would give meaning to her existence. But time passes relentlessly, and her empty womb becomes a mirror of her pain. This deep and burning longing grows like ivy that envelops her, driving her to despair, to struggle against her own destiny and against the cold indifference of her husband.
